DISCUSS

[DLR_EngineRoom]

Does anyone really have a favourite 'Zeppelin' song????????


Zeppelin is classic like Beatles, Stones, Who and Van Halen (78-84).

Classic meaning any song on any given album is great to crank up.

[sammysucks65]

eh idk.....stairway backwards makes me like turning the cd off....hahaha yea your right all zep is good zep

ACHILLES LAST STAND

Probably my fav Zep tune...this week.

[The Scatologist]

immigrant song....

AH Ahh AHHHHHH AHH!

[Shaun Ponsonby]

I'll probably be assasinated for saying this, but I have always though Led Zep were a tad bit overrated. They were a very hit and miss live band, and I have always preferred Deep Purple. Having said that, they are one of the biggest bands ever, so I think I could be out numbered in my views.

Don't get me wrong, I do enjoy listening to them, but I just don't see what everybody else sees.

[Dave's Bitch]

my fav Led Zep song is stairway to heaven

[Shaun Ponsonby]

I think everybody likes Stairway.

[sammysucks65]

stairway is good!

[Dave's Bitch]

stairway is the best Led Zep

That wasn't the question.


My favourite Zep song is "Misty Mountain Hop" as it was the first song off of Led Zeppelin IV i had never heard before and that was the first whole zep album i ever heard. As soon as i heard that i thought "there's so much more than the Early Days CD"

[FasterPussycat]

Noooooo Quaaarter!!!!

I like Great White's tribute to LZ version also...
It simply is awesome...

[Hardrock69]

Shit....I dig so many of their toons it would take days to list them all....

They were one of the bands that taught me to play guitar, and gave me the correct info'mation that the Blooze is the Infinite Bringer Of Pain & Delight from which all life is reflected....

or some such krap...

When The Levee Breaks



Speaking of "When The Levee Breaks", here is the original version recorded by Kansas Joe McCoy & Memphis Minnie in 1929...

And here is a history of the song as relates to Led Zep:

Not counting the obvious (Stairway)

Over the hills and Far away..

They say she plays guitar and cries and sings.

Yea, I knew that, I was just expressing my opinion.

In answer to the original question, which I have just realised I didn't answer, 'Black Dog'.

[Panamark]

Its a shame Radio has overplayed Black Dog, Rock and Roll, Whole lotta Love.. Great songs, but I have heard them way too many times
now...

Undeniably classic songs. Undeniably overplayed.

[sethfle]

How about In My Time of Dying, or, the whole Physical graffiti album, for that matter?

Yeah, they do sound pretty similar though they're played differently.

Anyways, I can't pick a favorite Zep song because it changes so often (right now it's Sick Again) but my favorite album is Physical Graffiti, closely followed by I, II, and III.

[sammysucks65]

^exactly! playing it on guitar is almost the same and it sounds the same.....

[sammysucks65]

umm yea didnt jimi paige play the guitar with a violin bow in kashmir?

[Hardrock69]

You mean Jimmy Page?

No. Seems to me the string section sound is actually a mellotron, though I could be wrong...

[sammysucks65]

i saw a picture of him with a violin bow playing his guitar i think it was for kashmir

The violin bow is not for Kashmir.

It was used on Dazed and Confused.

DLR7884
C'mon man. :rolleyes:

[Hardrock69]

In a live setting, yes.

Kashmir is one of the few Zeppelin songs to use outside musicians. Session players were brought in for the string and horn sections, and it was orchestrated by John Paul Jones, who had been a session musician and arranger for years before joining Led Zep.

[Coyote]

Can't really pick... So I'll go with "In My Time Of Dying".
